摘要
The removal of lead ions in contaminated water by the reduction of Pb(II) ions to the useful metallic Pb is challenging, especially in water polluted by other contaminants such as dye molecules. Most investigations focussed on the removal of Pb(II) in a single system. In reality, contaminated water contains a mixture of organic pollutants and heavy metals. Herein, we synthesized graphitic carbon nitride functionalized with ternary silver bismuth sulphide (AgBiS2/gC3N4) for the photocatalytic removal of Pb(II) from dye-containing water. The as-synthesized gC3N4, AgBiS2, and AgBiS2/gC3N4 composite were characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and transmission electron micro-scopy (TEM). The composite was used for the photocatalytic reduction of Pb(II) in the matrix of methyl orange, crystal violet, and methylene blue. The effect of the presence of easily-oxidizable organics and persulphate on the photocatalytic reduction of Pb(II) was also investigated. The results revealed that the presence of easily-oxidizable organics has synergistic effects on the photocatalytic reduction of Pb(II), while persulphate dis-played inhibitive effect on Pb(II) reduction. The removal of Pb(II) in the dyes matrix was influenced by the type of dyes that were present in the water. The rate of Pb(II) reduction was reduced in the presence of methylene blue and methyl orange, but crystal violet displayed synergistic effects. Finally, the rate of degradation of dyes in the presence of Pb(II) was investigated. The rate of photocatalytic reduction of Pb(II) decreased from 0.0045 min-1 to 0.0036 min-1 and 0.0016 min-1 in the matrix of methyl orange and methylene blue respectively. On the contrary, there was an increase in the rate of photocatalytic reduction of Pb(II) from 0.0045 to 0.0096 min-1 in the matrix of crystal violet.
